Question

Volume of a rectangular prism is 275 cubic Inches. The base is a square with the

side length of 5 inches. Find the height of this prism. Write the formula, and solve
as an equation. V=s?h

Answer 1

11 in

Explanation:

Starting with the base, we know the side length is 5 inches. So with that in mind, we can do 5 x 5 to get the area of the base, 25. We also know the volume of the whole rectangular prism is 275, so we can do 275 ÷ 25. The quotient of that is 11.

We can check our answer by doing 11 x 25. This gives us 275, proving that it is correct.

Hope this helped! :)
